Travel and Other Forms

Does your Supplemental Request involve travel? If so, there are additional things you need to know.

Once the BFC has heard your request, the request is forwarded to the Board of Trustees for requests greater than $25,000, for request less than $25,000, the request can then be approved by the Board of Trustees appointed official. Requests under $25,000 are generally approved within a week of the BFC meeting. Once your request has been fully approved, you will receive an email from the SURC Accounting Office.
